Using light coconut milk means this chicken satay stir-fry is still creamy but is way better for you with half the fat! We’ve also added pumpkin, carrots, capsicum and broccolini for extra veg. Broccoli ni is a great antioxidant and is high in vitamin C, potassium, dietary fibre and vitamin E. Gently cook broccoli by steaming or stir-frying to enjoy the great flavour and keep in the goodness of this vegetable.
INGREDIENTS
60ml (1/4 cup) light coconut milk
2 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
2 teaspoons kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
2 teaspoons light olive oil
400g chicken tenderloins
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped ginger

Fresh long red chilli, sliced (optional), to serve

METHOD
Step 1
Combine the coconut milk, peanut butter and kecap manis in a small jug. Set aside until required.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a large wok over high heat. Add the tenderloins and cook for 3 minutes each side or until golden and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Set aside to cool slightly before chopping into thirds.
Step 3
